Chapter 1418: Chapter 1418: How Many Corpses Are in the Car?
If he could confirm it, why would he need to ask them?
“Mister, please don’t get agitated. We’re also in the process of confirming the car owner’s identity. According to passersby, the person burned inside the car should be a female. As for her identity, further investigation is still necessary,” the police officer said.
Upon hearing this, Clayton Howard was stunned, and his entire deanor quieted down.
The burned female…
So, does that an the person inside wasn’t rescued?
No, that’s impossible!
Camila Walker…
“Camila Walker!”
When the police officers moved the charred corpse to the side and covered it with a white cloth, Clayton Howard’s heart sank—a massive rock seed to be pressing on his chest, nearly suffocating him!
But right after that, he felt sothing was not quite right.
If that was Nina Adams’s car, then who was the burned one—Nina or Camila Walker?
With this thought, he suddenly looked up and grabbed the police officer’s arm, asking, “How many corpses are there inside the car!?”
Caught off guard by his question, and especially after noticing Clayton Howard’s chilling expression, the police officer couldn’t help but be stunned but felt compelled to answer, “There should… There should only be one…”
“Clayton Howard…”
Just as Clayton Howard was clutching the police officer’s collar, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind.
His expression changed abruptly, and he turned around to see Camila Walker, disheveled, standing amidst the crowd.
Her hair was ssy, her face covered with tear stains, and it seed her arm had been sliced by fragnts of car window glass—the bloodstains were all too visible.
Seeing her like this, Clayton Howard felt constricted in the chest, but knowing she was safely standing before him also allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Camila Walker!”
“It hurts…” As he suddenly pulled her into his embrace, Camila Walker furrowed her brows, her expression one of pain.
Ten minutes ago, in that critical mont, she was helped by a few brave passersby who broke the car window and escaped. As a result, she got cuts from so remaining fragnts on the car window and her back was also injured.
Thinking back to that instant just now, she still felt sowhat unsettled!
Noticing her reaction, Clayton Howard, who had just pulled her into his embrace, quickly let her go, his dark starry eyes filled with heartache.
“You… What happened?”
“Nina Adams… she…” Looking at the burnt-out car and the body that had been removed, Camila Walker still couldn’t quite believe it.
Nina Adams had died right in front of her eyes…
Following her line of sight, Clayton Howard also turned his head, equally shocked, “Is that Nina?”
Camila Walker nodded. Although she didn’t particularly like Nina Adams, she hadn’t wished for her death. Now to see her dead in front of her, turned into a charred corpse, it was hard for her to believe.
Clayton Howard was also in shock. Several tis he had almost wanted to kill Nina Adams, but now that he actually saw her dead, he felt sowhat remorseful.
After all, she was Grandpa’s biological daughter, and she had died just like that…
Turning back around to look at the child before him, the sight of her wounds was heartrending.
“Let’s not worry about this for now, we need to go to the hospital.”
After saying this, he lifted her up and left the crowd.
Arriving at the hospital, and after the doctor’s examination, it was confird that her injuries were only minor and not serious. The baby in her stomach was also safe.
However, since there were too many cuts on her body, she still needed to be hospitalized for observation, especially now in the winter, as she was at risk of infection.
